The York County Council wants to hold the Knights to a $265K per year penalty if Don Beaver up and moves to Uptown before a four-year lease extension is over. Beaver says he can only afford $225K per year. This is the outfit that wants to build a $75m. stadium, haggling over $40K a year.

You watch, next year the 2008 agreement to free up and provide infrastructure for an Uptown baseball stadium will be amended, first to extend the 2011 deadline in that agreement and probably to increase the public subsidy involved in the deal as well.
